We can only see half of the sky at one time.
And in the morning or the evening,it's too bright to see stars.
As an observer moves away from the equator, towards the north or south pole, there are more constellations that the rotation of the earth does not ever block from his or her view throughout one full rotation.
One way to respond to the fact that people around the world are not all seeing the same constellations would be to say that we are all gazing out into the universe, into the largely-unknown. Also, people around the world view all of the same constellations, just not at the same time of the year.
There are 88 constellation on our night sky. ================================ I have 88 of them as well ... one for each key on my piano.
The night sky has various constellations that change throughout the year. Some common ones visible in the northern hemisphere include Orion, Ursa Major (containing the Big Dipper), and Cassiopeia. In the southern hemisphere, constellations like Crux (the Southern Cross) and Orion are prominent.
It is because of the rotation and revolution of the Earth's axis.The Earth goes to one side of its orbit this causes the other constellations to be blocked by the sun. The change in location makes other constellations out of sight. The Earth goes away from these constellations that's why we can't see them.
As Earth orbits the sun - it takes one year to get around it - we see different parts of space and different patterns of stars, as Earth turns away from the sun every night. The constellations we see on a night in summer, are behind the Sun during the winter.
The study of constellations is called astronomy. Astronomers observe, classify, and study the patterns of stars in the night sky to understand their positions, movements, and relationships with one another. Constellations are important for navigation, cultural significance, and scientific research in astronomy.
No one exactly knows what are constellations for.
A fancy way to say in the night is "in the evening" but dont talk all prim and proper no one likes a smarty pants.
Some of the most visible constellations from New Jersey include Ursa Major (containing the Big Dipper), Orion, and Cassiopeia. These constellations are prominent in the night sky and can be easily seen with the naked eye from various locations in New Jersey.
There is an imaginary band in the sky called the Plane of the Ecliptic. The planets we can see from earth, never wander above or below that band of sky - so the planets are always in one of the other of the constellations that lie in that band. We call those particular 12 (or 13) constellations the "constellations of the Zodiac".
The constellation Cassiopeia is named after a queen in Green mythology. It is one of the easiest constellations to see in the night sky and was one of the first to be charted.
